Some Notes on (Mem)Brane Computation

Membrane Computing and Brane Calculi are two recent computational paradigms in the framework of Natural Computing. They are based on the study of the structure and functioning of living cells as living organisms able to process and generate information. In this paper we give a short introduction to both areas and point out some open research lines.Ministerio de Educación y Ciencia TIN2005-09345-C04-01Junta de Andalucía TIC-58
